Chapter 109: The skies

"Uh..." Hesitating, really hesitating, I mean, the sky is supposed to be... above us, of course. But looking around, it's already night. If my calculations aren't wrong, we've been flying for over a day now, and to make things worse, I'm starting to feel a little tired... Plus, I'm hungry, a basic need for my body. I can't say the same for Seraphine, who keeps staring upward. The beat of her wings spreads a small field of golden sparkles, a pleasant spectacle that's best appreciated at night. But I'm really eager to get there quickly—before, I was nervous, but now, by the gods, I just want to get there already...

"Just hold on a little longer, we're almost there." Seraphine's voice sounded slightly frustrated. "I don't remember it being this high..." she muttered to herself. She began flapping her wings with much more force. Around her, rays of pure light rose with her body. Looking up, a great hole filled with blinding light appeared before us.
